It's a bit tricky.
By default map options carry over from the previous map.
You can edit the rules of the map and "Lock" the options you want, however (and you have to, just defining the value you want doesn't do anything). So set and lock the options you want.

See here, it's a bit of trial and error.
https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/wiki/Map-Options

You are probably better off setting the options every time or use /all in game chat to enable everything (cheat). Useful for development.

The [AR] maps (action ready) do this with standard competitive options, you may want to download such a map and look at the code in map.yaml and other .yaml's there.

Unfortunately that page is now 2.5 years old and probably outdated..
The one with everything in it.

People can't help you based on screenshots. Upload your complete .oramap instead. To be blunt: nobody needs your mod but *you* want others to invest their time into it. Make it as easy as possible for *them* to understand what you want, *what you tried* and what the results have been.

Map options in a yaml file inside the map will only be applied if they are locked

If they are not locked they are overridden by the lobby (server). Server owners can set their server but i have no idea if a client can set his own lobby rules for skirmish in a config file.

my advice, set all the options the state you want and lock them all.
